Using custom sounds Problem =( [SOLVED] - Simpanra - 05-09-2011
Hey =) So, i have just downloaded a voice acting track and i have cut it into the pieces i want using final cut, i then exported them into .ogg using Audacity, put them into a sounds folder in my custom story and placed them correctly in my script (using PlaySoundAtEntity functions) but it hasn't played a single one of them =( not one, I realised i might need a .snt version of each sound so i made a copy of each and changed them to .snt and placed them in the same folder in my custom story. Still nothing =( can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong? =(
Thanks,
Edd

.snt files are just lists which says which files to play basically, you can edit the game's .snt files with notepad++ to see how they're built up.
Alternatively, you could use PlayGuiSound to test your sound since that will play .ogg files only, while playsoundatentity needs .snt.

What is a good normal volume for a sound file using the PlayGUISound function?
I have tried using the PlayGuiSound function but it doesnt work =/ either than or 10 as volume is too quiet, but i dont think it is =/ The sound just wont play =( Someone please help me,

PlayMusic? You have to put them into Music folder instead tho

but how would i prevent them form looping? =/
RE: Using custom sounds Problem =( [HELP PLEASE] - Khyrpa - 05-09-2011
There is this thing:
StopMusic(float afFadeTime, int alPrio);
and also:
PlayMusic(string& asMusicFile, bool abLoop, float afVolume, float afFadeTime, int alPrio, bool abResume);
abLoop - determines whether a music track should loop
so just put false in there and it should not loop
